The cool, cloudy and showery weather of the previous week contin ued up to to-day. It is now clear ard very warm. The weather that has prevailed has been worth untold wealth to the propuces of Oregon, and trom every section comes the flatter ing and encouraging reports. The rains were especially copious in the Willamette valley and along the coast, where from 1 to 3 inches fell. In South- Oergon over one inch fell at Koseburg, but decreased southward to Jackson county, where less than one-half inch fell. In Eastern Oregon more than the average rainfall has occurred, varrying from one to two inches. The rains were most opportune and have given new life to all growing vegeta tion. Fall and early sown wheat are now thought to be past any harm from atmospheric causes. It is filling well and of good quality, stools large and stand very good. The crop will be from present appearances, more than an average one; from Umatilla come reports that it will be the largest crop ever harvested in . the county. Late sown spring wheat is coming up and fair yields of good hay crops will be obtained from it. From every section of the Willamette valley reports are encouraging, showing an enthusiastic feeling among the farmers. Some clover hay was down when the rain began, and was slightly damage Timothy has been greatly improved. Oats are doing well. Corn is thrivii but in sections of Eastern Oregon the weather is too cool. Hops are grow ing finely and giving promise of a good yield. In Gilliam and Morrow rye harvest ia in progress and yields very good. Codlin moths have not done any damage yet. Spraying is, however. recommended as a preventative. Peaches and apples are a short crop in Southern Oregon; other fruits are very plentiful. The potato yield promises to be the largest in the his tory of the state. Every section re ports them doing finely. Through the stock county grass on the range is good and cattle are in fine condition. The rain extends through Crook, Grant and other interior connties, in suring the hay and grain crop. The week closes with the most flat tering outlook for hops. B. S. Pagce. Observer U. S.

Here is another of many such .nstances: Dear Sirs: I send J5, for which please return a half dozen of your vegetable sarsaparilla. I have moved here Irom sierra City, CaJL I took three bottles before leaving, hence I send all the way back to California for more. It was just before I lett Sierra City, about a year ago, mat l began to feel very miserable. My skin was very yellow, and I was all pains and aches, especially under my shoulders and in my head. The doc tor said it was mv liver, and gave me some medicine which relieved me somewhat. One of my neighbors happened in and told me she had started to take Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla, and advised me to try it. I did, and with such good effect that I now feel like a new being. I have persuaded one of my neighbors here to take it, so part of this is for "her and part for mvself. MRS. GEO. DELBRIDGE, Butte City, Montana. The reader, if he or she has not tried it, has no idea of what Califc lia's vegetable juices, (which is but another name for Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla) will do for disordered systems. The "Semi-Annual ' Report of the Free Reading Room" was received too late for publication this week. Much other interesting matter has also been left out this week on account of the early hour at which we go to press, but it must be remembered that the first duty cf the printer, as well as of every other patriotic citizen, is to cele brate the Fourth of July and keep it holy. A HAUNTED HOUSE. This body of ours has been likened unto a tenement. It often has a haunted apart ment the stomach. Scared by the eldrich sprite, dyspepsia, digestion flies and refuses to return. What can break, the spell, what can raise the ban laid upon the unhappy organ? We answer unhesitatingly, Hostet ter's Stomach Bitters, and we are warranted in the response by the recorded testimony of myriads, covering a peiiod of over a third of a century. A course of the Bitters begun at any stage of tbe affliction, and persistent ly followed, will terminate in cures positive, not partial. The Bitters restores tone to the epigastric nerve, renews ami purities the juices exuding from the cullnlar tissue that act upon the food digestively, expels bile from the stomach and the blood, and pro motes a regular habit of body. Malaria, kidney complaint, nervousness, rheumatism and neuralgia, give way to this medicine. Taken to the Asylum, Eliza Brock, of Lower Alsea, was brought to Corvallis by O. V. Hurt last Wed nesday. After an examination by Judge Holgate, Dr. C. H. Lee and M. L. Pipes, she was found to be insane and ordered to be taken to tha asylum. Family trouble was apparently the cause of her insanity. She was taken to Salem yesterday. Residence Burned. The resi dence of Berry Ingram, who lives on what is known as the old Harris place two and one-half miles west of Monroe, was destroyed by fire last Sunday. Mr. Ingram and his family left the farm about noon to visit their daughter who resides in Linn county and has been quite sick. They had been absent about an hour when neigh bors discovered the house to be on fire but before they could reach it the flames had gained such headway as to be beyond control and the building and all contents were burned to the ground. The loss is estimated at about $1,500. No insurance. Mr. Ingram had bought the place some time ago and had just finished paying for it, and the loss of his home will fall quite heavily upon him. National Surgical Institute, 319 Bush St., S. F. One or more sur geons representing this Institute will be at the Revere House, Albany, July 17th and at the Occidental Hotel, Cor vallis, July 18th.

Condit, Albany, L. McFailand, Al bany, J. S. Morris, Scio, Mrs. Kate McCune, Lebanon, G. Zumwalt, Irv ing, Or. Bking in Samples. Reports from various parts of the county are to the effect that crops are looking fine and the prospects are there will be an abundant yield. Hay harvest is well along and by the first of next week much of the fall wheat will be ready to cut. In this connection the atten tion of the fanners is called to the im portance of selecting samples of their produce to place on exhibition for the purpose of advertising Benton count)'. Such samples, intended for the North western Industrial Exposition to be held in Portland this fall, or for adver tising the resources of this section in any way, it left with W. H. Hartless, president of the board of trade, will be forwarded to their destination free of charge. We hope the farmers will take a lively interest in this matter. Letters.

Suicides are daily occurrences in Seattle and Tacoma, chiefly among despondent visitors who are disappointed in not realizing their hopes. JUDGE SMITH'S DECISION. Ed. Gazette: In an article printed in the columns of your pa per, entitled "An Important Deci sion," I gave a quotation from an Ottawa correspondent of an eastern paper, in which was given a brief summary of the leading points in Judge Smith's decision in the Na perville injunction case. In the Albany Democrat, of June 20th, I. B. Fisher denies the correctness of the statements contained in the quotation in the following words: "Nowhere in his decision did Judge Smith say that Bishop Esher was legally suspended and could not act as Bishop, nor that the confer ence presided over by Elder Byers was the legal conference," etc. In our article the quotation did not give the words of the judge, but the points of the decision and whether these points were correct ly stated will appear from the following, which is quoted directly from the text of the decision: "What are the admitted facts in tills case. That (here was an Illi nois conference in the city of Chi cago, April 10, and that the mem bers that had a right to go there met the day appointed and at the place appointed, and that on that occasion Bishop Esher was refused the right to preside over that body, on account of his having been de posed from his office, until the meeting of the next General Con ference, that he thereupon with drew from that body, and it is not denied that it was originally a proper body that is conceded. Bishop Esher then, at the meeting of the Illinois conference not being admitted, returned to a place where lie held what he called another conference, but that was not a lawful conference. The proof is that legal steps had been taken which resulted in the suspension of Esher as Bishop. A present ment had been made against him and a trial was had according to the force and form of the discip line after due notice was given him, and he took no appeal from that judgment. It was found by the trial conference that they had jurisdiction of him and of the sub ject matter. I see no irregularity in that. I think he had no right to preside over the Illinois confer ence, and that the body acted in strict conformity to the discipline in appointing a presiding officer, and if their proceedings therein were regular all were bound by its acts," etc. M. J. B. J. Brandt, for many years super intendent of the Oregon & Califor nia and Southern Pacific railroads, this state, died in San Francisco last Monday. Good results are being had from the work go:ng on in the Quartz- ville mining district on the Santi- am river. Nuggets as large as peas are frequently found. Mail-catchers have been erected at all stations along the main line of the Southern racific railroad. This is a move to quicken the time of the' overland mail train which, since July 1st, does not stop at the smaller stations. BRICK, BRICK.

MISCELLANEOUS. Miss Mattie Mitchell is said to be one of the handsomest girls in Paris. She is, of course, an Amer ican, and the daughter of Senator Mitchell, of Oregon. Settlers on the unsurveyed land east of Britonbush, on the line of the Oregon Pacific railroad, are endeavoring to secure the survey of a township by advancing the necessary funds. The bill extending for two years the time for building the Newport & Kings Valley railway through the Siletz Indian reservation, has been reported favorably by the committee on Indian affairs. The deaf mutes of Portland are organizing a society for protective and beneficent purposes, to be called the Knights of Silence of Oregon. The membership is to extend to all deaf mutes in Oregon who have graduated or left school. The Tillamook Headlight says: Tillamook has more life and ener gy to the square Inch than any small town in Oregon. Strangers arriving here express surprise at the business done considering the size of the place and its issolatiou from the rest of the world. It is said that the coast defense vessel, Monterey, will be ready for launching at San Francisco in about three months. . The cruiser, San Francisco, it is stated, will have her trial trip July 4th, it the dock trial proves satisfactory. It is claimed that should the fighting clubs in San Francisco be closed, Sullivan and Jackson will never meet in the prize ring. This would be terrible, indeed, but; then it should not prevent the authorities of California from clos ing up the clubs. A cedar tree on J. M. Hackett's place, near Kalama, is eighteen feet through, and 850 feet high. Whole townships of land in that section are covered with fir trees which are from 250 to 350 feet high. One of the residents in that locality built a house 22x30, 1 stories high, and a barn 25x36 feet out of the lumber from one tree and had piles of lumber and fence posts left. Astoria n. A new swindling scheme. A fellow appears at the house of a farmer several miles from town, and showing samples of cloth, tells the farmer what a grand bargain he can obtain in town on a certain day; by buying a suit a nice hat will be given free. Ten dollars are advanced lor a membership ticket of this syndicate, and that is the last seen of the agent, the cloth, the samples or the $10. Observer. It is esti mated that over 20,000,' 000 cigars are manufactured every day in the United States alone, and this enormous number requires in the neighborhood of 420.000) boxes for their keeping. As a result there are over 200 factories in the country turning these boxes out. The wood of which these boxes are made comes from Mexi co, Central America and the West Indies. An exchange says: Information comes from an absolutely reliable source that the president and sec retary of state have received posi tive assurance from, the govern ment of Russia tfiat the latter stands prepared to make good the representations given at the time of the Alaskan purchase of Behr ing's being a closed sea, and that if the United States desires the co-operation of Russia in enforcing this doctrine she can have it. It has been impossible to learn what views or purposes are held m the ! matter by Blaine. r j V. A 1 t "
